Abstract: In this paper, a complete 3-D EMP model is established to simulate the nonlinear effects of the ionosphere based on the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. Then the influence of time scale of lightning current discharge on ionospheric atmospheric discharge is innovatively analyzed by using this model.
